N2 AND N4 RACKMOUNT KIT INSTALLATION

This section provides information for installing the OpenEye 2U and 4U network recorders into a rack
unit with the rack rails provided. There are a variety of rack units on the market which may mean the
assembly procedure will differ slightly. You should refer to the installation instructions that came with the
rack unit you are using.

Preparing for Setup

The box your OpenEye recorder was shipped in should include two sets of rail assemblies, two rail
mounting brackets and the mounting screws you will need to install the system into the rack. Please
read this section in its entirety before you begin the installation procedure outlined in the sections that
follow.

Note

These rails are designed to fit a rack between 26 and 33.5 inches deep.

Separating the Section of the Rack Rails

The package includes two rail assemblies in the rack mounting kit. Each assembly consists of two
sections: an inner fixed chassis rail that secures directly to the server chassis and an outer fixed rack
rail that secures directly to the rack itself.

1. Locate the rail assembly in the packaging.

2. Extend the rail assembly by pulling it outward.

3. Press the quick-release tab.

4. Separate the inner rail extension from the outer rail

assembly.

5. Repeat steps for the second rail assembly.
